Press Releases

Bridgelux is thrilled to announce the launch of our cutting-edge LED products, RGBW 3838 package and RGBW CSP COB Array, designed to revolutionize the way we experience light. These innovative products offer a unique combination of vivid colors and true-to-life white light, which can be tuned to mimic the sun's natural color from 1800K to 12000K throughout the day.

RGBW 3838 package:
Our 0.5-1W RGBW 3838 LED package features four colors in one (RGBW), allowing for the creation of any mixed color light. The true highlight of this product is its ability to produce white light along the blackbody locus similar to the sun's natural color at different times of the day. This feature enables users to experience a more natural and dynamic lighting environment, from the warm glow of sunrise to the cool tones of noon. Bridgelux also offers module products using 3838 packages including circular 55mm for downlight, Linear 24mm x 560mm or 1120mm for fixtures, and flexible strips 10mm x 5000mm linear lighting.

RGBW CSP COB Array:
Available in two sizes, 10mm and 13mm, our RGBW CSP Array offers a range of power options from 10-15W and 20-25W, respectively. These powerful arrays can produce an impressive 1000-1500lm and 2000-3000lm of light output, making them ideal for both color and white lighting applications. Like the RGBW 3838, the RGBW CSP COB Array also provides users with the ability to tune the white light along the blackbody locus, ensuring a natural and comfortable lighting experience in addition to producing vivid color light. CSP COB Array holders with optics combinations are available to support our customer demands.

Key Features:
1.    Four-color RGBW LED package for a wide range of color and white light options
2.    Tunable white light along the blackbody locus for a more natural lighting experience
3.    High-power arrays for optimal spot brightness and efficiency
4.    Perfect for both color and white lighting applications

To deploy our RGBW products to the market rapidly, partnering with Signify Bridgelux has developed four-channel constant current drivers with a build-in WiZ module. All of our RGBW products can be commissioned with the WiZ App and are ready to use. Our RGBW strip products can be tuned also by IR remote drivers, WiZ modules with constant voltage drivers, or Wiz modules with standard DC plugin power supplies.

“With the launch of our RGBW LED products, Bridgelux is redefining the standard for LED lighting, offering a superior and customizable experience for all users. Experience the future of lighting today with our revolutionary RGBW 3838 and RGBW CSP Array.

Fremont, Ca.—March 18, 2022 – Bridgelux, Inc., a leading developer and manufacturer of LED lighting technology and solutions, announced that its Board of Directors has appointed Dr. Yi-Qun Li as its Chief Executive Officer, effective immediately.  Dr. Li replaces Tim Lester who recently departed Bridgelux to pursue other opportunities.   

Prior to being appointed as the CEO of Bridgelux, Dr. Li was the co-founder of Intematix Corporation, and served as its CEO and Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing. Dr. Li is highly regarded in the lighting industry—considered by many to be a pioneer in LED technology and its applications.  Over the past 20 years he led multiple innovation initiatives in phosphor technology including silicates, lutetium garnets, coated narrow-band red and narrow-band green sulphates.

In recent years, two of Dr. Li’s passion projects, F90 and Thrive, have had the most wide-ranging commercial impact on the industry.  F90, which uses the novel KSF phosphors, has facilitated the confluence of high efficacy performance and high color rendering in the same package.  Thrive, which uses multiple broad-blue chips in the same package, creates full-spectrum emission that matches the spectrum of natural light. Under his guidance, Bridgelux has expanded both programs into multiple SMD and COB products for both commercial and residential applications.

Dr. Li holds Doctorate and Master of Science degrees from Stevens Institute of Technology and a Bachelor of Science degree from Northeastern University in China. To date, Dr. Li has published more than 50 scientific papers and holds over 120 issued US patents on a wide variety of technology including LED phosphor compositions, remote phosphor structures, and LED devices. Dr. Li has also served as Research Professor at Stevens Institute of Technology, Research Engineer at semiconductor companies EMCORE and ATMI, and held executive positions at start-up companies NZ Applied Technologies and Spinix Corporation.

“When you think about the enabling technologies that have allowed LEDs to dominate, nothing has had more impact on performance, cost and quality of LEDs as the improvements in phosphor technology,” says Don Peifer, founder of Smash the Bulb, who along with Bridgelux was recently recognized by the DOE as a concept phase winner for the prestigious L-Prize. “Dr. Li and Bridgelux are critical contributors to the state of the art we all enjoy as both an industry and as consumers.”

FREMONT, Ca – December 1, 2021 –Bridgelux (www.bridgelux.com), the leading developer and manufacturer of innovative LED solutions, announces the results of a study the firm commissioned for its innovative full spectrum product family, Thrive.  The goal of the study was to ascertain whether top designers would recognize a difference between Thrive and 90 CRI products and find out which light source looked more natural based on their expert opinion.

The study utilized a complement of Thrive and 90+ CRI LEDs at three popular color temperatures: 2700K, 3000K and 4000K. The light sources were placed inside a box and attached to a switch.  Common articles in different colors and finishes along with a standard Color Chart were placed under the LEDs inside the box. Designers were able to switch back and forth in each CCT to discern any differences.  Their comments were recorded over a series of 18 separate tests.  Across this wide range of objects, Thrive was preferred 88% of the time compared to 8% for 90 CRI and 4% undecided. Enthusiastic response to Thrive were typical with one lighting designer claiming “It felt like sunlight coming through the window.” A one-minute video showing how designers embraced the natural spectrum of Thrive can be viewed here: https://www.bridgelux.com/resources/bridgelux-thrive

Thrive uses a broad-blue chip technology and special phosphor blend to fill in the common Cyan gap that plagues most LED solutions.  The technology is at the heart of Sylvania’s TruWave technology for their popular Nature™ Lamp series of products.  Because of Thrive’s full-spectrum approach, Thrive is more able to match the spectrum of the sun across all color temperatures. Benefits of the natural spectrum of the sun using Thrive include reduced eye strain, less fragmented sleep and a higher sense of emotional well-being.

“The development of new LED technologies is often times done in a vacuum,” says Tim Lester, CEO of Bridgelux.  “It is hard to know whether designers will like it.  By tracking as close to the natural spectrum of the sun, however, we were able to anticipate the positive reactions.  Even so, the overwhelming support from high-end, high-impact specifiers is humbling and lets us know we hit our target.”
